If these tablets are made from sweet potatoes, why can't I get the ceramides I need by eating more of them and not buying pills?

You would have to eat an enormous amount of sweet potatoes at one sitting to get the same amount of ceramides in one pill that is concentrated.

I think it's a little disconcerting why the manufacturer isn't answering this question. I also want to know how many ounces of sweet potatoes are needed to make one of their 350mg capsules of phytoceramides.

Probably because you have to eat huge amounts to get that much from the natural source.

I don't know. All I know is I've ordered the sweet potato for over a year and all three dogs have had no problem with these bone filled treats at all. Sorry I couldn't give you more of an answer towards your question.

I don't recall exactly what they contained(all quality organic stuff I would feed my family!),but because the contained sugar(I don't give that to my dog-ever) I discarded them.I am happy with other products from this company(my dog loves the freeze dried sweet potatos-that is the only ingredient in that product!)

I'm not sure, and I have no way of knowing. I've noticed that a pill form that I have tastes slightly sweet. This is probably because it comes from beets.

No i don't think it does. Your body replenishes the lost ceramides naturally.

It varies per manufacturer. Also what form of vitamins, tablet, capsules, or gummies. Sorry couldn't be more help.

You'd have to take quite a few to equal a tablespoon, and they'd be more expensive. This literally disappears in liquid, so there's no point to the capsules anyway.

I make liposomal vit. C only. However, I do not make liposomal glutathione because too much my of lecithin my cancer patient will get.Therefore, I make suppositories with glutathione in them, since it's not completely absorbed if taken orally. If you need more detail, let know, just at the very moment I have little time, I'm sorry.

And if you dont know what Ceramide-PCD and Rice-based/gluten free phytoceramides are and the difference/advantage of taking it is, then do your research. This is the Ferrari of phytoceramides much lighter and more effective than gluten based phytoceramides from wheat or sweet potatoes.

I googled vegetable gums and found a lot of explanations of the sources used to make these. I also googled gluten-free diet and found a lot of information on the Mayo Clinic website as to what to avoid. Bottom line: ask the manufacturer of the XyliMelts.

I would be appalled if they add a sweetener because some sweeteners being used by the industry are not harmless. I even did not have this idea! But I am making my own liposomal Vitamin C, so I know this one contains only Vitamin C and sunflower lecithin. George Knorr

Label mentions no wheat, corn, soy, sugar or sweeteners. There is vegetable cellulose which could be potato starch. Hope that helps.....

Hi Pegasus, Thank you for bringing up this question. This is a common misconception that 40mg of Rice phytoceramides are not equivalent to 350mg of wheat based phytoceramides. There was a study done for rice phytoceramides using 40 mg dosage over a six-week period. The formula used in InstaNatural during this study was used to moisturize skin naturally and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles better than other wheat based ceramides. Our rice phytoceramides are much more powerful than wheat-based ceramides, including 350 mg wheat ceramides. Statistics from the study published June 1, 2000 by the Institute of General Medical Sciences, Soiken, Japan. So if you were to take this formula, you don't need 350 mg. This is completely different than the wheat based phytoceramides. Hope this helps. Thank yo u. AJ
